"We have decided that today Marcos no longer exists," he wrote in a lengthy statement published on the Zapatista website that he said was his last message as the rebel leader.

BERLIN (Reuters) - BMW plans to announce in July that it will build its first assembly plant in Mexico and has earmarked two regions where the site could be built, Automobilwoche reported on Sunday, without citing the source of the information.

The spectacular rise of Mexico's movie industry, which has increased feature film output fourfold in 10 years, may also offer cash-starved European producers a way out of Euroland austerity. With various strands of private and public production financing unlocked through official co-production treaties, Mexico, with its spectacular locations, excellent crews and now the money to match, has rarely offered more, despite the problem of the ongoing violence from drug wars. Barcelona-based Neo Art's Antonio Navas is co-producing haunted house story "Darker Than Night" with Mexico's Filmadora, Itaca and Celeste Films majority financing.
